I received this patch from "Markus Elfring <Markus.Elfring@....de>". 
There is no SOB from "Markus Elfring <Markus.Elfring@....de>" therefore 
"Markus Elfring <Markus.Elfring@....de>" has not followed the DCO.

The resolution to this is either the author and the SOB change to 
"Markus Elfring <Markus.Elfring@....de>" or "Markus Elfring 
<Markus.Elfring@....de>" adds a SOB at the end to show the path the 
patch took (reference the paragraph in the documentation you linked to, 
starting at line 449).
